Nothing, but need that style/method.

How to draw messages like similar style, non std dialogs? What functions are used there and if official method even exist to raise custom msg like that? https://i.imgur.com/iezNLGa.png

Thank you Remy

Anybody knows where to look for version in binary exe/dll? I mean to determine if file was builded in version 11 or 12 etc.(I do not mean edition but version)

@KodeZwerg Thanks, yes it's useful as for crashing I meant your previous code(Multimedia Timer) when set to very low interval. Thanks it's really alpha and ver(lack of Period and some checks) anyway great start. Thank you

Apologize delay(illness) Thank you guys for all of your input and comments, CreateTimerQueueTimer seems to be the best method (cpu time vs accuracy) @KodeZwerg Multimedia timer(your first code posted) works very precise too, however I'm getting AV on form close(with low intervals <=50ms) - not always. As for the latest method, Can you show some basic implementatio like for the first one? Fire action every interval set mean for unit kz.Windows.Timer ; Probably it would be good to add procedures and properties for Period and DueTime(SetPeriod, SetDueTime) QFP, QPC seems to be non go for such usage like I first wanted, it's very good for meassure execution time for some portion of code e.g. for profiling/optimizations. But for other purposes CreateTimerQueueTimer seems to be the king. @Lars Fosdal Fire and run until app will be closed/destroyed (launch tasks every X time with precision where ttimer is too weak)

This was my initial question...;) Still don't know how to know do effecient check if X time was passed to fire action using stopwatch

Thanks for your input, I doubt I will do that better than anyone did already, I do not feel much strong to make it good enough. so after only quick initial research seems that topic with meassuring time is definetely not trivial.

Hello, I need to fire some action very precisely AFAIK I cannot fully trust to Ttimer(accuracy) Maybe question is stupid or trivial but how get something similar like below but using the most precise method(TStopwatch) procedure TForm1.Timer1Timer(Sender: TObject); begin // Do something every 1 second(timer interval set to 1000ms) end;

@Renate SchaafInteresting stuff, can you post this with all latest fixex? Have you got own repo with your projects?

You need to build TDI driver then, but as Brian @Brian Evans said better way is use Windows API and proven technology, you can focus on UI things rather than much more complicated kernel driver part. Driver will be needed in both cases but WFP is much much simpler.

I've just read that: https://community.idera.com/developer-tools/b/blog/posts/c-builder-and-platforms-support Yes IMO we are just cash cows. Many problems with quality and speed of development new things, modern tech. When I first heard many years ago about FMX and mobile, I just knew it that it going just nowhere. Delphi should stay mainly (and only) Windows desktop development tool (without mobile devices support) Programmers could have stable powerful absolute king of Windows desktop dev solution. Of cours full Rad studio with C++ as well. More features/platform = more mess, lower quality if you are not as big company as Microsoft or Alphabet, Apple, Oracle. Quick patches (Especially semi automatic from Getit) instead of waiting for major/minor release is very good step forward. So I see one small step in good direction in last years. Just unreal wishful thinking, going back to reality, waiting for 10.4.1 ; )

Nothing tuned, std install computer perfectly stable, minimal install of 3rd party programs, I don't like to have oveloaded OS. Minute ago tried with IDE Fix Pack latest, also not helped, reboot either did not change anything. 100% frustrated like never before.

Hi, Anyone has similar issues with 10.3.3 - Win64 Target? Empty VCL project Debug Run - mouse round cursor spinning it started 10 minutes ago while I'm writing this still freezed. Clean Win10 install, no AV installed no other security app, even Windows Defender totally disabled for paranoid mode. No problems with 32 bit.

Thanks for all, @PeterBelow this method is preety cool but with big problem it will overwrite current potenrial image in clipboard...
